Almost 7BLD UWR... DNF(31:55.97)[15:37.09]

Damn, that really sucks. I wasn't expect even one mistake, but there are 4...

Hello all,

I've been looking for a good BLD method and I hear people say Old Pochmann is good for beginner. 3OP, M2 and Freestyle are other ones I've heard of. I have tried the Old Pochmann method, I understand it and could potentially do it (after getting better at memo). But I've heard that if I really want to "speed" BLD (which I kinda want to do) I should choose a different method like M2. So what would you guys recommend? Sorry if this has been asked before.

Also, what are the methods do the WR people use? People like Marcell Endrey.

Thanks!

M2 is easier to be fast with than OP
if you mean speedBLD, thats something completely different
start with OP if you want, then move to M2 later, or just start with M2 edges and OP corners, doesn't matter
fast people use BH/3style

also this belongs in the OABQT

Yeah sorry I posted in the wrong thread! I noticed once I was looking if anyone answered my post in the OABQT thread only to find in in here. Thanks for the quick reply and again I'm sorry.

MultiBLD: 4/6

1 cube was off by a 3-cycle of edges that I forgot, other was 2 flipped edges and 2 2-swaps of corners

Time: 30 minutes (+- 15 seconds)

Thanks! I was hoping for a better result, but I guess I have to try this again soon.

I know this feeling
My first attempt was off by 2+ centers , keep trying , you will get it very soon I'm sure , Good luck

4/8 in 41 minutes.
2 cubes were 2 flipped edges off, 1 was 2 flipped edges and 2 twisted corners and one was missing the corners, because I had completely forgotten them.
However, I'm still happy because this has been faster than my 7/7, which probably means that I'm getting more confident while I memorise, and I don't really have to review as much as I had to when I started doing multi seriously. I hope to get the NR at my next competition.

7BLD DNF by TWO t-centers

 

[Username]

5BLD: DNF 25 minutes

Time is 20 minutes faster than PB, that's what all my times have been recently.

I decided to use center comms instead of U2

I can't wait to get a success again. My current PB sill be smashed

4/5 multi in 12:58. Gave up before the last cube since I couldn't remember memo. Would've been 5/5 if I remembered the memo. :fp I suck.

First 5BLD attempt: DNF(1:01:15.77)[39:11.22]

3 +-centers, 3 wings and 3 midges. Not bad considered I have a 1/10 accuracy in 4BLD

The amount of targets 'n stuff (If my memo was right):
21x/18+/22w/12m/6''c
Wings was just one long cycle

I want to get a success by the end of the summer.

 

[andi25]

5x5 BLD 4. try: DNF (42:45.90[25:30.04] )

3 midges, 3 wings

but 6 min faster than last attempt...
